Chapter 509: Fluctlight's New Action
"He Xiao, there is news!"
On the third day after the war horn sounded, Yu Xiao walked into He Xiao's office happily and said with a smile: "On June 1 this year, there is a movie about Yaoguang to be released!"
"Movie?"
He Xiao, who was scrambling in the studio, heard the news and immediately became interested in his eyes.
Yu Xiaole said: "Yes, a commercial blockbuster, took the comedy route. I heard that I spent 300 million yuan in it, which is the largest investment in Yaoguang in recent months!"
In the next ten minutes, Yu Xiao reported the news he received in detail to He Xiao.
Although Yaoguang is a celebrity agency, in addition to cultivating artists, it also has records and film and television branches. This year, they focus their development on film and television drama development.
Yu Xiao got the news that he was too late. Yaoguang's movie had already started preparing at least during the Olympics last year. It took a full five months from determining the script to selecting directors and actors, and formally launching projects.
In January this year, it officially started in Hengdian and is expected to be released on Children's Day.
The confidentiality work of this movie is done well, and the type of the movie is also positioned as a "commercial film", with only one goal - high box office revenue.
"According to my friend's disclosure, Yaoguang's senior management attaches great importance to this movie, otherwise they would not have spent 300 million yuan. It is said that the special effects teams were invited from abroad, and the cast was also a top-notch domestically. The pay alone cost 150 million yuan." Yu Xiao thought for a while and added another sentence.
In China, holidays have always been a must-fight place in the film industry. Labor Day, Children's Day, National Day, and Spring Festival are all full of rosters.
Yaoguang made a big move this time. There are not many movies in China that are willing to invest 300 million yuan to shoot. It seems that they are full of confidence in this June 1st and will definitely win the box office championship.
And to be honest, without discussing the plot, such a lineup alone is enough to attract too many people to go to the cinema.
It’s just a pity that when this incident came into He Xiao’s ears, their wishful thinking was destined to fail.
Because He Xiao now plans to carry out comprehensive development with Yaoguang, and sniping Yaoguang from all aspects from all fields.
Do you want to win the wallets of Chinese movie fans on the June 1st?
Sorry, have you asked me about Mr. He’s consent?
Almost without hesitation, He Xiao confirmed his idea of going against Yaoguang Entertainment in the June 1st stage.
Of course, this is undoubtedly a fantasy behavior in the eyes of many people. Not to mention the feasibility of the quality of the movie, it is a big flaw in terms of time alone.
After all, it is already March now, and there are only less than two months left before the June 1st stage. After removing the complicated trivial matters such as script project establishment and casting, there is not much time left for the filming of the movie.
In such a short period of time, I have been preparing for a blockbuster with me for nearly a year and investing 300 million yuan to compete. Do I have any chance of winning?
I believe that everyone who hears it will think that He Xiao must be crazy.
But only He Xiao knew that he could do it because he did not lack commercial film scripts!
The most important thing about the speed of a movie is nothing more than the script. As long as the script is determined, the rest will be filmed.
In the last ten years of the world, when the Hong Kong film industry was at its peak, it only took seven days to shoot a movie.
What's more, He Xiao has two months to prepare now?
He is completely unhappy!
The quality of the movie is not a category that he needs to consider, and time is not a problem. The only thing he needs to think about is to choose which classic movie that can win the box office, so that Yaoguang will lose money to pee his pants.
"Brother Yu, let me inform everyone that we have work to do!"
He Xiao sat on the boss's chair, thought a little in his mind, and said with a final say: "I'll go back to write the script tonight."
"So urgent? Can it work?" Yu Xiao came here today just to report on the movements on Yaoguang, but he didn't expect that He Xiao would make such a straightforward decision to officially start a war with Yaoguang, which made Yu Xiao a little confused.
Their studio has never made a movie, and He Xiao's previous development center has always been in the music industry. This time, he suddenly changed to the film and television field. In such a hurry, Yu Xiao was inevitably a little worried.
Although he believed in He Xiao’s ability very much, this is completely different from the previous situation?
Yu Xiao was stunned. He looked at He Xiao's eyes and found that the other party had no intention of joking.
"Don't worry, Brother Yu, there's definitely plenty of time to shoot a movie in two months."
He Xiao stood up and patted the other person on the shoulder, with a strong confidence on his body, and said with a smile: "Brother Yu, the only thing you have to worry about is to contract us.
After the box office of June 1st, will it attract jealousy from your peers?”
This is very domineering, but it is so crazy that it has not changed.
If someone else talks to Yu Xiao like this, Yu Xiao would definitely slap the other party with a backhand.
But if He Xiao said this, he would be a little infected.
After all, this man never does something he is unsure of, and he is a miracle in himself.
The decision was issued layer by layer. On the same day, He Xiao planned to make a movie everywhere in the studio, and his opponent was a new commercial film that Yaoguang spent 300 million yuan.
This incident undoubtedly had a certain impact on the studio. There were all things to say. Everyone would not say it on the surface, but would have different opinions in their hearts. Some people would even wonder if their boss had lost his mind and did such a crazy thing.
He Xiao had no explanation. He didn't have that free time to explain now. He got home from get off work at five o'clock in the evening, then locked himself in the room, took out his cell phone and looked over and over again.
In the world of black mobile phones, there is never a shortage of commercial blockbusters. What he needs to do now is to find a movie that can compete with the box office of Yaoguang's commercial film.
In order to ensure that everything is foolproof, He Xiao chose very carefully and specially selected classic blockbusters of "King Bang" level to watch.
Then these films are listed in a table and then filtered one by one.
There is a strange phenomenon in the Chinese film industry now. Many popular movies come from comedy categories, followed by love, science fiction, and suspense.
Perhaps it is because there is no good science fiction script, or the pressure on contemporary young people is too high in life and urgently need a comedy to relax. In short, comedy movies now occupy half of the film industry.
Yaoguang also focused on the comedy film this time. According to Yu Xiao’s disclosure, the style of the whole movie is a modern comedy route, with a slight time travel.
So in order to more accurately hit the shaking light, He Xiao directly crossed out other categories on the list, leaving only the comedy films.
Then he carefully selected a number of comedy films, and deleted some ancient and fantasy backgrounds.
After screening layer by layer, until after ten o'clock in the evening, only a comedy movie was left on He Xiao's list.
It is also the most special of all popular movies, which brings together laughs and tears.
Chapter completed!
